Searching for value in Napa Valley is not an easy thing to do, but we send our team of expert buyers several times a year to undercover hidden gems. One of these standouts is the Clos de Napa Cabernet Sauvignon. Cabernet Sauvignon became Napa's star during the 1976 Judgment of Paris, when Stags Leap took first place over the French First Growth Bordeaux's Mouton-Rothschild and Haut Brion. The staggering impact of the "win" was reinforced ten years later when the same wines were tasted a second time. The winner was another Stags Leap Cabernet Sauvignon: 1972 Clos Du Val. The Clos de Napa is the best kept secret in Napa, and we cannot reveal the winemaker or winery behind it. However, we can tell you this is essentially the entry level Cabernet Sauvignon for an Napa Icon, whose current release is selling for $250 a bottle. Don't miss this remarkable find from Napa Valley!
"Deep, dark cherries, blackberries and mint aromas draw you into this full-bodied but elegant wine before ripe, robust black fruits, pine and cocoa flavors carry the palate. It offers a velvety texture and a balance between mild acidity, moderate tannins and tasty ripeness." The Wine Enthusiast, 92 Points
